On Mac OS X how can I monitor what is using my internet connection?
I have an ethernet connection to my iMac and with Internet sharing I am broadcasting the wireless network from my mac rather than using a wireless router. I use it to connect other devices wirelessly to the internet. But this makes all the traffic flow through my iMac.
I wanted a way to analyze the traffic so that I know what connected devices are hogging the bandwidth at a given time and from which websites? I installed wireshark for mac and played around a little but it seems like an overkill when you first look at it.
Can someone please help with few instructions to get what I need or any other way other than using wireshark?
Thanks Dev.
(As an aside: as far as I know, internet sharing only supports WEP, right? Just to be sure you know that is not very secure.) – Arjan – 2010-12-28T10:39:04.920
@Arjan: Thats correct and thats why I wanna keep a tap to make sure no one is hogging my B/W ;) – Dev – 2010-12-28T11:45:08.330
@joe: yeah that post was helpful. But it was more about traffic from your own machine rather than any other machine on a WLAN and analyzing it with little-snitch rather than wireshark I think. – Dev – 2010-12-28T11:46:16.940
